    I know they'll be under Direct Orders in the assignment part of the site, but do you also get an email? I don't want to keep checking the site for them if you're made aware another way.

    Yep, I received an email along the lines of "Congratulations you've received a direct order".


    There does seem to be a lot of work around at the moment, long may it continue. :)

    this sounds disappointing, much work for little pay ....and you can get frustrated with the often poor customer support, into the bargain

    Personally I actually find research and writing to articles fun and it's keeping my brain in shape until I go back to college. I don't think it pays badly either - it certainly pays better than some surveys I've done.

    After today's email about money-making ideas from home I've been and signed up with TB. From reading this thread it sounds pretty good for those it works out for... fingers crossed! :)

    Loads of 3* jobs at the moment, although may be fairly specialist?! (Not sure if I should mention topics on here?)

    I have noticed these too. Can't say it's my area of expertise, but that's why we're writers - imagination!

    True! I've picked one up for a local-ish area to me, so lets see what new things I can learn! ;)

    Hi all, signed up a few days ago and submitted my test piece. I know everyone's is different, but how long does it usually take for you to hear back? Thanks

    They sent out an email yesterday, I think, saying they'd been deluged lol...so it could take longer than usual to process applications. :)

    They probably got deluged because TB was mentioned in an e-mail that went out from MSE ....
